Don’t start from here

The Gorse Fox reviewed the outline of a project. An ambitious project. A project with a fixed end-date. An end-date that cannot be negotiable and has the continued “license to operate” contingent on success. The sort of project that makes heroes – or ends careers.

He asked what “Plan B” was – in case things should be delayed.

“Ah! Plan B was that we start a major transformation of the systems involved – three years ago”

They didn’t. So they may need to consider a Plan C! Gorse Fox sees this as an opportunity for someone (not him) to work night and day for the next 22 months – away from home, getting “advice” and being “reviewed” by Starfleet on a weekly basis.
